The Angel Song
Schlomo Carlebach
This is a Jewish prayer song that calls on four angels for protection, Michael, Gavriel, Uriel, and Raphael. In Hebrew these names translate to: "Who is like you, God?", "God's Strength", "Light of God" and "It is God Who Heals". Shechinat el refers to the feminine aspect of God. Roshi means my head, so above my head is the Shekinah. This prayer echoes other spiritual traditions that call to the four directions in rituals for casting a circle of protection.
Lyrics:
B'sheim hashem elohai yisrael
m'yemini Michael u'smoli Gavriel
u'milfanei Uriel, m'achorei Raphael
v'al Roshi, v'al Roshi Shechinat el
In the name of the name, the one of the one
To my right is Michael to my left is Gavriel
In front of me is Uriel and behind me Raphael
and all around surrounding me, Shechinat el

For open hears is the blessing

Angel Band
adapted lyrics for tonight by K Hannan
My latest sun is sinking fast
My race is nearly run
My strongest trials now are past
I'm resting in the One
chorus:
Oh, come, Angel Band
Come and around me stand
Your light, your harmony, sings in me
Right Here Alive Right Now
Your light, your hamony, sings in me
Right Here Alive Right now

Millenium Grace
words by Stephen Levine
There is a grace approaching
that we shun as much as death,
this grace is the completion of our birth.
It does not come in time,
but in timelessness
when the mind sinks into the heart
and we remember.
It is an insistent grace that draws us to the edge
It is an insistent grace that draws us to the edge
Insistent grace, insistent grace
We know we must pass beyond knowing
We know we must pass beyond knowing
And we fear the shedding.
But we are pulled upward none-the-less
through forgotten ghosts
and unexpected angels, luminous.
Luminous, luminous
And there is nothing left to say
nothing left to say
There is nothing left to say but We are That
And That is what we sing about
That is what we sing about
That is all we ever sing
That’s all we ever sing

Every Little Child
© K Hannan 2003
One little child was born on Christmas day
One little child was born on Christmas day
One little child, one little child
One little child was born on Christmas day
One little child was born in Summertime
One little child was born in Summertime
One little child, one little child
One little child was born in Summertime
One little child was born in Spring
One little child was born in Spring
One little child, one little child
One little child was born in Spring
One little child was born in Autumn time
One little child was born in Autumn time
One little child, one little child
One little child was born in Autumn time
And the angels came, did you hear them sing?
In the shining light of the maternity wing
Sayin' "People do not be afraid, Love is new.
In the heart of every child Love is born to you!"
Love is born, love is born
Love is born in the rivers, in the mountains
Love is born in the heart of every child
Love is born
Love is born in the foxes, in the earthworms
Love is born in every living thing
Love is born in you and me right now
And the angels came, did you hear them sing?
In the shining light of the maternity wing
Sayin' "People do not be afraid, Love is new.
In the heart of every child Love is born to you!"
In the heart of every child Love is born to you
In the heart of every child
In the heart of every child
In the heart of every child
Love is born!

Every blade of grass has its Angel
Bending over it and whispering
And whispering
Grow, grow, grow
Likewise we have angels bending over us
